Webapp Writewith simplifies word processing for groups, with in-browser document editing and the ability to share and collaborate on documents with other users.

Writewith boasts a chunk of impressive features that Google Docs doesn't offer, like being able to see users' avatars when they are viewing or editing a document, assigning tasks and deadlines to fellow editors, simultaneously editing documents, embedded chatting, comprehensive history reports of all changes, revision comparisons, and the ability to upload or export documents at-will. Import and export the following file formats to Writewith, too: DOC, RTF, ODT, HTML, and TXT, and it's free to register and use. Check out the video demo courtesy of the Writewith folks for a feature rundown. — Kyle Pott
